[GeneralOxxy]

Buy used optiplex

Put in 1050ti

Cuntry? Older hp, dell and lenovo systems would be good from that. They often have an i5 4460, 4GB of ram and a 500GB HDD. Throw the extra 8GB in there with a 1050ti and you're set

@GeneralOxxy

I used to compile budget build (parts lists) on my blog - before the prices went haywire. What CPU do you want to build your rig around? Where are you from? Those two factors are going to control the rest...

I already have a windows 10 key i bought for 6 dollars on ebay and a 120gb ssd for operating system i need a pc that can handle low to medium 1080p gaming i5 would be good but fx 8300 is so much cheaper and has 8 cores should i go with the fx?

Otherwise I'd just go with an old dell prebuilt or some shit like that.

if you need cores you wont find more than a quad core on mainstream chips that arent xeons or what ever for under $100

It's alright for integrated graphics in a past gen card. Though you do have enough money to get a used graphics card I suppose.

Hence why I suggested the A10, know plenty of people that have had decent experiences with them, even with the R7 integrated graphics.

[GeneralOxxy]

btw can i oc the a10-7800

[GeneralOxxy]

and is the cpu cooler for the a10-7800 good or should i get a hyper 212 evo or smthn like that?

maybe look at a 2200G its only less than $10 more and its much better but he did mention DDR3 so never mind... get the A10

if youre going to overclock it id probably reccomend a cooler but you may not need to spend $30 on a 212 maybe look at a gaamaax 200t i think its called
